Episode 1: Sounds Of Carnival
When we talk about the musical history of Black Britain, it’s only right we talk about a staple of Black British culture... Carnival! To kick off this 10-part deep dive into the musical history of Black Britain, cultural powerhouse Julie Adenuga is joined by singer/songwriter Shakka and the UK’s very own Dancehall Queen, Alicai Harley! Together, they explore the music, history, origins and soul of Notting Hill Carnival and how it looks in 2022 after a 2 year break. Check out our Spotify playlist where we've added some of the tunes discussed in the episode, our favourite tracks from the star guests, and general vibes from the genre... LISTEN HERE
